[RC] Secrets to Sucess featuring a variety of different riders - KimFueThe Secret to Success post jogged my memory to send this post.This is a little bit lighter subject then all the metabolic issues. I think it would be nice to have a regular column in EN that highlights an AERC member each month. Over the course of a year it would be nice to get a variety of different types/style of riders highlighted each month that would represent a cross section of our membership not just the high mileage or high profile riders. I think it would be interesting to read what ideas the average endurance rider has on conditioning, picking their horse, views success in endurance, balances everyday life with conditioning and competing, etc. When I subscribed to "Clean Run" a monthly dog agility magazine, there was a feature like this in every issue. I found it interesting to learn how other trainers/handlers prepared their dogs for trialing etc. It was a light column but over time I gleened a lot of information. Kim
